Plan and select Lists of Plants 



as continue for some length of time in bloom ; and which are 

 at the same time neither too expensive nor difhcult of pro- 

 pagation. Some of the groups, therefore, may not harmonise 

 so well in colour and symmetry as is desirable ; but this defect 

 can be easily remedied on the spot. In a few instances, in 

 the winter and spring list, I have mentioned the plunging 

 of some of the bulbs in pots ; and I think the practice is not 

 so much attended to as it deserves. By potting a quantity of 

 bulbs of every description in the autumn, and plunging them 

 in the beds in which they are to flower, and, as soon as the 

 flowering is over, taking them up and replunging them in the 

 reserve ground to perfect their foliage, we gain a month at 

 least in the length of the summer season ; a consideration of 

 some importance even in this climate."
